Well I am home after a great weekend spent with old friends, some new friends, and an absolutely fantasmicgorical (an invisionary term...) weekend.

Here is my last installment of pics. Some from the Saturday evening Pow Wow, todays final cruise to the shelter for Birthday cake, and lastly the trip home.

Again I want to thank Gene and Terry for all of their effort!!! Most importantly to all who attended! I hope it was worth your time and that you enjoyed yourself!

As promised I will post up information about a future event to be held in October. Please send me via PM any ideas, thoughts, suggestions you might have. Likewise if you want to help organize or chair that event let me know.

I have a few final notes I will post up in the next few days but for now it is time for a little R&R.

Thanks again all! My wife and I had a great time!!!

Here are the PICS

Well I'm back to the grind but can't help thinking about the wonderful time we had with Ya'll. It will take a while for my jaws to stop hurting from the laughter. You guy's are the best. Looking forward to the next gathering and hope you who couldn't attend will be there. Lot's of love, Terry & Patty Moore

Oh and also. If any of you ladies would like to borrow the size-o-meter, I'm sure Butch & Janie won't mind.

Hey Folks....What a fun time...some wonderful memories. My head is still reeling from the car collections we saw. The trip home was fantastic; the rain chased the whole way but never caught up with us. I've got pictures to share, and as soon as I figure out how to do it, I will. Thanks again, my summer's off to a fantastic start!
